Description
In this handwritten letter, dated December 22, 1937, Annie Webb Ray writes to her family to let them know how happy she was to receive their letters. She tells them about Leighton's headache and then includes a note to her daughter, Margaret, to thank her for the lovely gift Margaret and Frank sent to her. She lets them know that while California is pleasant, she thinks she would like to be home before summer. She goes on to tell them about Leighton's financial worries and the doctors' concerns about the county hospital. An envelope addressed to Mr. E. L. Ray in Kosciusko, Mississippi and postmarked Santa Rosa, California, December 24, 1937 is included with the letter.
